How to read a climate chart

Template:Climate chart/How to read a climate chart

Usage

argument 1
Appears in the heading
arguments 237
The data. Think of it as 12 rows, one for each month, with left column for average low temperature, middle column for average high temperature and right column for precipitation.
maxprecip=
Supply highest monthly precipitation number if the blue precipitation bars pop out of the chart (happens if any of the monthly numbers is greater than about 750 mm (30 in.))
float=
left, right or none.
clear=
left, right, both or none.
source=
Supply the source of your data

Empty syntax

{{climate chart
| <!--- India --->
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
|maxprecip = <!--- supply largest monthly precipitation, in case it's > 750 mm (30 in.) --->
|float     = <!--- left, right, or none --->
|clear     = <!--- left, right, both, or none --->
|units     = <!--- set to "imperial" if the values are in °F and inches --->
|source    = <!--- source of the data --->
}}

Units

In articles where SI units (°C, mm) are preferred, input the data in those units. This is the default state — no further parameters are needed. In articles where imperial units (°F, inches) are preferred, input data in those units and specify the parameter units=imperial (see below). This parameter must be used so that the units are labeled correctly and so the conversion is done properly.

Examples

Float: right
